Best Road Trip That’ll Turn Your Kids Into foodies

Bee City

Staff Pick

For many, Bee City is a fearsome beast. The allure of the honeybee farm and petting zoo can arouse shrill entreaties from children as young as two as you approach on Highway 61. They will beat the seats, beg, plead, offer up their mother as collateral, if only you will stop. We encourage you to listen to your kids, not just for the local honey, or even the opportunity to pet a few animals before venturing on down the road, but for the lasting impression that such a place might give them about the importance of local food, its relationship to the environment, and the need to support such efforts. They will like the honey and the goats, but they’ll also one day realize where that cabrito taco comes from. beecity.net
